Dear all,
If you’ve forgotten to register for the Galaxy workshops please get in and do so! They’re advertised here: http://www.embl-abr.org.au/about/events/
I look forward to seeing you there.
The first one (August 22nd – next week!) is on Genome Assembly, using Galaxy Australia.
Best wishes
Mike

Dear Tasmanian Bioinformatics Folk,
Workshops for all!
There will be some free stand-alone Galaxy-based workshops run locally in the hybrid mode (like the Genome Annotation one we had last year), later in the year as below.
The dates/times for these training events are now confirmed as:
* Wed Aug 22 1-3pm AEST – genome assembly
* Wed Sep 12 1-3pm AEST – variant detection
* Tue Oct 23 1-3pm AEDT - RNA-seq
* Wed Nov 14 1-3pm AEDT - metagenomics
I'll be journeying to far-off Melbourne in July to a train-the-trainer workshop so I can best facilitate and answer all your questions locally.
Please register your interest at any of these workshops on the Google form here<https://goo.gl/forms/o49629yFaLhaUydB2> --- NOT by return e-mail!<https://goo.gl/forms/o49629yFaLhaUydB2><https://goo.gl/forms/o49629yFaLhaUydB2>

Themes
* Next generation sequencing & bioinformatics
* Data science and machine learning for bioinformatics
* Bio-data analysis and visualisation
* Advanced microscopy analysis and modelling
Featured speakers
-- John Quackenbush, Harvard University

-- Sean O’Donoghue, Garvan Institute of Medical Research
-- Simone Linz, University of Auckland
-- Cameron Bean, Artificial Intelligence for Genomics, Max Kelsen Brisbane
-- Joshua Ho, Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute
Speakers at Winter School are chosen as great presenters and world leaders in their field. For the complete list of speakers and presentation titles, visit websitehttp://bioinformatics.org.au/winterschool/<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/tDkjClxwAVHXw87ncGHJWa?domain=bioinformat…>.
Workshop & bootcamp
A Genomics Virtual Laboratory training workshop (limited places) will be run during the Winter School on Wednesday 4th July. A Software Carpentry Bootcamp (9-10 July) is also being run in conjunction with the Winter School. Both events were fully subscribed in days last year, so register early to avoid disappointment.
Feedback from previous Winter Schools
“I would strongly encourage all biologists even without any mathematical background to attend the Winter School.”
“Fantastic speakers.” “Great networking opportunities.”
“It takes special talent to pull off a conference people actually enjoy attending and it was thanks to some of the more charismatic orators, that I was able to enjoy the Winter School so much.”
“Gave me the confidence I need to talk to other people and bioinformaticians about the analysis of my NGS data. Thanks."
